Did I see this correctly? He wore a blue suit to the funeral?

45. Not wearing black outside of the immediate family has been accepted for years.

Decent, dark clothing is acceptable. Unless there are dress requirements at the site of the funeral/burial, such as with this one, apparently. Men were requested to wear dark suit and tie, and that should have been followed. If women had been required to wear a veil, or otherwise appear in appropriate attire, they should have followed that request.

Some people, no matter how much money or power they have, are simply uncouth and not suited for proper civilized society.
